Fish market, Protected fish market in central Bruges, Belgium.

The Vismarkt features a Classical colonnade structure designed in 1820, where vendors display fresh seafood from the North Sea throughout the week.

The fish trade relocated from Market Square to this dedicated location in the 18th century when city officials restricted sales due to odors.

The market maintains traditional Belgian fish trading practices, connecting local fishmongers directly with residents and visitors seeking fresh seafood.

Customers can purchase fresh fish and seafood from Wednesday to Saturday mornings, with convenient access from the Langestraat parking area.

This site represents the oldest preserved fish market in Belgium, situated along the Groenerei Canal between Burg Square and Koningin Astrid Park.
